Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out a flow characteristics when a crossflow-fan is installed inside the computer case and to provide information about the preliminary data of cooling efficiency of CPU and a flow inside and outside of a computer case. Under the condition of operating the fan inside the experimental duct we changed the position of a installation of the slot, and the experiment measured with PIV and the results are as follows. Under the influence of the crossflow-fan installed to the air discharging side, mean velocity between 35 to 45 on the point 80 of the Slot 0.2.3 of the case increased and it influences discharging the air inside of the computer case. On the left-upper end. which isn`t directly influenced by the suction-discharging fan installed inside the PC, a flow occurs caused by vortex due to the Sirocco-Fan and Slot installed on the center of the right side. We can see that a flow distribution increases when the Sirocco-Fan operates and a whirl appears stronger between the slot and the suction fan. It is thought that this phenomenon is influenced by a flow while it is on the way of entering from the suction-fan and going out to the discharging-fan.
